Naturally, that meant that Chip Kelly was made Monday to answer for the diminishing returns of his running game.

Though he did catch a 25-yard touchdown pass, league-leading rusher LeSean McCoy was limited to 44 yards on 12 carries. One theory: The Raiders chose to limit the Eagles’ running attack and take their chances with Nick Foles, who was coming off a concussion.

“I don’t think that’s true,” Kelly said. “People don’t do that. They don’t come in and say, ‘Hey, we’re going to stop the run, we don’t care if they throw the ball over and over again.’ That’s not how football coaches operate. I know we don’t operate that way. I don’t think anybody I’ve ever been around that coaches football operates that way.”

The Birds rushed 24 times for 128 yards Sunday, an average of 5.3. And Bryce Brown did collect 54 yards on seven carries.

“Bryce did what we’ve expected Bryce to do and I think what Bryce expected of himself,” Kelly said. “It wasn’t a surprise to anybody. He did a really good job of squaring his shoulders up and of not really trying to create something that wasn’t there. And he’s a big, physical guy. I thought he did a really nice job.”

“He is getting a little more familiar with what we’re trying to do,” Kelly said. “You can see him gaining that experience gaining his confidence as he goes along.”

Wolff was in on five tackles and successfully defended two passes Sunday. Chung, too, contributed to five tackles.

“Pat hadn’t been out there and Earl has,” Kelly said. “We’re just trying to get Pat back involved. We were happy kind of how he responded and where he was. But it’s a process of bringing him back in. It wasn’t, ‘Hey, he’s 100 percent healthy, let’s throw him back in the field.’

“We are starting to get a little bit healthier, it helps especially at the safety position that we’ve got Nate Allen, Earl in, and now Pat.”

Kelly said Jason Peters (shoulder) should practice Tuesday. He expected a medical update on Bradley Fletcher (pectoral) “later in the week.” He had offered no timetable for the return of Michael Vick (hamstring).
